  • A Phylogeny of Legumes (Leguminosae) Based on Analysis of the Plastid Matk Gene Resolves Many Well-Supported Subclades Within the Family1
    American Journal of Botany 91(11): 1846±1862. 2004. A PHYLOGENY OF LEGUMES (LEGUMINOSAE) BASED ON ANALYSIS OF THE PLASTID MATK GENE RESOLVES MANY WELL-SUPPORTED SUBCLADES WITHIN THE FAMILY1 MARTIN F. W OJCIECHOWSKI,2,5 MATT LAVIN,3 AND MICHAEL J. SANDERSON4 2School of Life Sciences, Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona 85287-4501 USA; 3Department of Plant Sciences, Montana State University, Bozeman, Montana 59717 USA; and 4Section of Evolution and Ecology, University of California, Davis, California 95616 USA Phylogenetic analysis of 330 plastid matK gene sequences, representing 235 genera from 37 of 39 tribes, and four outgroup taxa from eurosids I supports many well-resolved subclades within the Leguminosae. These results are generally consistent with those derived from other plastid sequence data (rbcL and trnL), but show greater resolution and clade support overall. In particular, the monophyly of subfamily Papilionoideae and at least seven major subclades are well-supported by bootstrap and Bayesian credibility values. These subclades are informally recognized as the Cladrastis clade, genistoid sensu lato, dalbergioid sensu lato, mirbelioid, millettioid, and robinioid clades, and the inverted-repeat-lacking clade (IRLC). The genistoid clade is expanded to include genera such as Poecilanthe, Cyclolobium, Bowdichia, and Diplotropis and thus contains the vast majority of papilionoids known to produce quinolizidine alkaloids. The dalbergioid clade is expanded to include the tribe Amorpheae. The mirbelioids include the tribes Bossiaeeae and Mirbelieae, with Hypocalypteae as its sister group. The millettioids comprise two major subclades that roughly correspond to the tribes Millettieae and Phaseoleae and represent the only major papilionoid clade marked by a macromorphological apomorphy, pseu- doracemose in¯orescences.

The n-hexane, methanol, and water extracts prepared from the leaves were found to contain oxalates, phytate,tannins and cardiac glycosides, The proximate composition revealed the presence of moisture (51.00 ± 0.50 % fresh weight), ash (8.17 ± 0.58 % dry weight, DW), crude lipid (5.0 ± 0.5 % DW), crude fibre (2.67 ± 0.29 % DW), crude protein (8.23 ± 0.11 % DW) and carbohydrate (75.94 ± 0.64%). The Anti – nutritive compositions which are oxalate (2.26 ± 00mg/100g), phytate (12.26 ± 0.01mg/100g), cynogenic glycoside (0.24 ± 0.00mg/100g) and tannins (3.05 ± 0.02mg/100g). They also contained vitamin C (21.13mg/100g). The results of the analyses were compared with other green leaves consumed. These results releaved that the leaves of Indigofera astragalina contained medicinal agents.

Corresponding Author: [email protected]; Phone:+2348063632924 ABSTRACT Pollen morphology of nine species of the genus Indigofera of the tribe Indigofereae in the family Fabaceae from Nigeria were studied with the view to evaluate the similarities and dissimilarities within and among pollen features of the nine taxa using light microscope after standard acetolysis mixture. These species were I. capitata, I. congolensis, I. deightonii, I. geminata, I. hirsuta, I. macrophylla, I. nummulariifolia, I. spicata and I. subulata. Results from this study revealed that the sizes of these pollen grains ranged from 22.9×20.5µm2 in I. subulata to 35.2×28.5µm2 in I. nummulariifolia. Apertures of the grains are tricolpate in I. capitata, I. congolensis, I. deightonii, I. geminata, I. macrophylla and tricolporate in I. hirsuta, I. nummulariifolia and I. macrophylla . The ornamentation of these species varied from striate in I. capitata to vermiculate in I. nummulariifolia. Photomicrographs of the pollen grains and the dendrogram of the nine taxa studied are provided to further aid the phylogeny and classification of these species.

Naturforsch. 59c, 868Ð873 (2004); received June 21, 2004 Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) marker was used to establish intergeneric classification and phylogeny of the tribe Millettieae sensu Geesink (1984) (Leguminosae: Papilionoideae) and to assess genetic relationship between 9 constituent species belonging to 5 traditionally recognized genera under the tribe. DNA from pooled leaf samples was isolated and RAPD analysis performed using 25 decamer primers. The genetic similarities were derived from the dendrogram constructed by the pooled RAPD data using a similarity index, which supported clear grouping of species under their respective genera, inter- and intra-generic classification and phylogeny and also merger of Pongamia with Millettia.

PANDEY*1 & HANNO SCHAEFER2 1Department of Botany, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007, India 2Technische Universitaet Muenchen, Plant Biodiversity Research, Maximus-von-Imhof Forum 2, D-85354 Freising, Germany * corresponding author, email: [email protected] Abstract Indigofera himachalensis, a new species of Fabaceae is described from Himachal Pradesh, India. It differs from I. heterantha in having longer and sparsely adpressed hairy pods and larger seeds that are greater in number per pod with a reticulo-rugulate pattern of the spermoderm. Key words: Fabales, Himalaya, ITS, Leguminosae, new taxon Introduction The genus Indigofera Linnaeus (1753: 751) belongs to the tribe Indigofereae (Fabaceae) and is the third largest genus in the family containing 700–750 species (Schrire 2005, Schrire et al. 2009). The species are distributed throughout the tropical and (sub)tropical regions of the world, but the major centers of diversity are in Africa and Madagascar (550 spp.), the Sino-Himalayan region (105 spp.), Australia (50 spp.), and the remaining 45 species occur in the New World (Schrire et al. 2009). In India, the genus Indigofera is represented by approximately 60 species and 10 varieties, of which 15 species and seven varieties are endemic (Sanjappa 1995). During our systematic studies of the genus Indigofera, field trips were made to Himachal Pradesh, and several specimens were collected.

  • A Revision of the Indigofereae (Fabaceae) in Australia. 1. Indigastrum and the Simple Or Unifoliolate Species of Indigofera
    651 A revision of the Indigofereae (Fabaceae) in Australia. 1. Indigastrum and the simple or unifoliolate species of Indigofera Peter G. Wilson and Ross Rowe Abstract Wilson, Peter G.1 and Rowe, R.1, 2 (1National Herbarium of New South Wales, Royal Botanic Gardens, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia; 2present address: Environment Australia, GPO Box 787, Canberra ACT 2601, Australia) 2004. A revision of the Indigofereae (Fabaceae) in Australia. 1. Indigastrum and the simple or unifoliolate species of Indigofera. Telopea 10(3): 651–682. The first part of a revision of Australian representatives of the tribe Indigofereae (Fabaceae) is presented. Two genera are recognised for Australia, Indigastrum, with one variable species, Indigastrum parviflorum, and Indigofera. In this paper, we give a general introduction to the tribe and treat Indigastrum and those species of Indigofera with simple or unifoliolate leaves; the remainder of the species of Indigofera will be covered in a future publication. The twelve species of Indigofera (ten endemic, one native and one introduced) with simple or unifoliolate leaves are fully described and one species complex is indicated as worthy of further in-depth study. Where relevant, typification, variation, and conservation status are discussed. Five new species of Indigofera are described and illustrated: Indigofera ixocarpa, I. rupicola, I. petraea, I. pilifera and I. triflora. Two synonyms of Indigastrum parviflorum are lectotypified. Introduction Indigofera and its allies are now widely considered to constitute a group of tribal rank, the Indigofereae (Rydberg 1923, Polhill 1981b, Schrire 1995); the tribe is predominantly one of the Old World tropics. Polhill (1981a: 199, fig. 4) considered it to be derived from a broadly defined, woody ‘Tephrosieae’ (=Millettieae) and rbcL sequence data (Doyle et al.
